Sola Rosa | Bush Buds | Slim Jackson

Celebrating 25 years as one of Aotearoa’s most enduring musical projects, Sola Rosa brings a three-piece band and his signature blend of soul, funk, R&B, jazz, and hip-hop to ReImagine. Led by Andrew Spraggon, Sola Rosa has built a global following for his rich, inventive sound.

Showcasing new tracks from the EP New Tomorrows, along with a taste of what’s to come on the full-length album dropping in 2026, expect this set to be a sonic journey through past, present, and future.

Opening the night is Taranaki five-piece Bush Buds, serving up a sound that’s uniquely Aotearoa, blending laid-back reggae rhythms with the soulful vibes of indie-roots. Late night DJ, Slim Jackson will keep you dancing into the night with his soul & funk beats.
